In this issue of Prime we chat to singer and songwriter Lira. She is singing again after what she’s termed her “stroke of luck”. She's refreshed, recharged and fearless, sharing that being reborn means there is a new Lira with a renewed love of life, which she says, she’s grabbing “with all the enthusiasm of a child”. Yes, she has the same indomitable spirit that saw her leave a safe job in accountancy to follow her dream of becoming one of SA’s best-known vocal artists. And yes, she has the same enjoyment of adventure. But she is singing a different, more harmonious tune today.
